just 18 and the money’s short a victim of public transport made her smile with his best approach and he checked her out and he checked his watch saying “alright the time is short i wouldn’t do anything to hurt you the time is tide and i feel alright so let’s make a little love before my ship goes down you know i’ve to go when the bus comes ’round”

she’s a lovely girl but you’re in a rush the make-up hides her blushes find a place where there is no light gotta make your move or you walk tonight saying “alright relax a while of course i will respect you” so let’s make a little love before my ship goes down you know i’ve to go when the bus comes ’round”

for a car i could make it sweet in a warm back-seat i could drive you far if i only had a car in a car no more winter nights in the bus-stands light getting frost-bites i’ve got to have a car

spent all your loot on a brand new suit but the zipper gives you problems you within range when the weather changed just like her mind and washed away your chances not tonight she’s not the outdoor type that’s alright let’s make a little love before my ship goes down you know i’ve to go when the bus comes ’round

for a car i could make it sweet in a warm back-seat i could drive you far if i only had a car in a car no more winter nights in the bus-stands light getting frost-bites i’ve got to have a car for a car (repeat refrain)
